Hare's Tube Apparatus
Product Code : SCL-POM-11225
The Hare’s Tube Apparatus is a physics laboratory instrument used to compare the densities or specific gravities of two liquids by observing liquid-column heights in a three-limbed tube. Lab Equipments Ambala lists this apparatus with a polished stand and 45 cm meter scale for Properties of Matter practicals.
Product Description
The Hare’s Tube Apparatus from Lab Equipments Ambala is positioned under Physics Lab / Properties of Matter. It is designed for classroom and college-level experiments where students compare liquid columns raised by suction and use the height ratio to determine relative density.
The verified Lab Equipments Ambala listing gives the product code as EL-POM-10357 and describes the apparatus as comprising a three-limbed tube mounted on a polished stand with a 45 cm meter scale, zero at the bottom. The listing also states that it is supplied without rubber tube and pinch cock; confirm accessories before procurement.
Key Features
- Verified product code: listed by Lab Equipments Ambala as EL-POM-10357.
- Three-limbed tube arrangement: supports comparative liquid-column experiments for density measurement.
- Polished stand: provides a stable vertical arrangement for classroom practical work.
- 45 cm meter scale: allows measurement of liquid-column heights during the experiment.
- Zero at bottom: supports direct vertical column-height comparison from a common reference point.

Applications / Uses
- Comparing the densities of two liquids in physics laboratory practicals
- Determining relative density or specific gravity using liquid-column height readings
- Demonstrating pressure balance in connected liquid columns
- Supporting Properties of Matter experiments for schools and colleges
- Training students in scale reading, meniscus observation, suction control, and data recording

How to Use the Hare’s Tube Apparatus
- Place the polished stand on a stable laboratory bench and check that the three-limbed tube is vertical.
- Arrange two suitable liquid containers below the two lower tube ends.
- Attach the required rubber tube and pinch cock if these are being used; confirm these accessories separately because they are not supplied in the verified listing.
- Immerse the tube ends into the two test liquids without allowing air leakage.
- Apply gentle suction through the central limb to raise both liquids in the tubes.
- Close or control suction carefully so the liquid columns remain steady.
- Read the height of each liquid column from the 45 cm meter scale, using the bottom zero reference.
- Compare the column heights to calculate relative density or specific gravity as instructed in the practical method.
Safety note: Use only suitable laboratory liquids under instructor supervision. Do not suck unknown, toxic, volatile, corrosive, or hazardous liquids by mouth. Use a safe suction bulb or approved suction arrangement. Handle glass tubing carefully, keep the stand stable, and clean spills immediately.
Care & Maintenance
- Rinse the tube thoroughly after each experiment to prevent residue, staining, or blockage.
- Keep the scale, stand, and tube clean, dry, and free from dust before storage.
- Check for cracked glass, loose fittings, blocked tube ends, and damaged stand supports before use.
- Store the apparatus upright or in protective packing to prevent tube breakage during handling and transport.
